Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 lb Brussels sprouts (trimmed and cut into halves)
  • 1 1/2 cups panko breadcrumbs
  • 1 large egg (whisked)
  • 1 tsp chopped parsley
  • 2 tbsp sweet chili sauce
  • 2 tsp sriracha
  • 1/4 cup low-fat mayonnaise
  • 1 tbsp honey

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a large (three-quarter) baking sheet with parchment paper. Spread out panko bread crumbs onto baking sheet in a very thin and even layer. You want all of the panko to bake evenly so you don't want your layer to be too thick. If your baking sheet is too small, you can use two baking sheets. 
  • Spray panko lightly and evenly with canola oil spray. Bake the panko for 5 minutes or until the crumbs are a light golden brown. Cool the panko before transferring to a large bowl. Remove half of the crumbs and set them aside. Keep the parchment on the baking sheet so that it can be re-used for the brussels sprouts.
  • Coat the brussels sprouts with the egg. Shake off any excess egg drippings. You can also use the edge of the bowl holding the egg to remove any excess coating. You want to make sure you don't have any excess egg drippings when you put your sprout into the panko because once the panko becomes moist, it won't stick. 
  • Place the curved side of the sprout down into a pile of panko. Wipe your hands dry if you have egg on them, so you don't contaminate the crumbs. Scoop more panko on top, covering the sprout. Press the crumbs onto the sprout and place the sprout on a baking sheet. Repeat with remaining sprouts. When you start to run low on panko or they stop sticking because they have gotten moist, add a little more from the half you set aside.
  • Increase the oven temperature to 400°F. Transfer the sprouts to the oven and cook them for 20 minutes or until the sprouts are tender and the coating is crispy.
  • While sprouts are baking, make your sauce. Combine the sauce ingredients in a small bowl. Whisk until smooth.
  • When sprouts are finished baking, garnish them with parsley. You can drizzle sauce over sprouts or serve the sauce on the side, which will keep the sprouts crispy longer.
